Howdy,
Tell me a bit more about those eggplants, please, and I"ll see if I can help.

When did you plant them?
What medium are they planted in?
How are you watering them? Drip? hand held hose? (looks like that could be some sun scald from water back splash).
What are you feeding them?

Answer these ??s and it might give me a clue. Although, I'm guessing it's from water splashing up on the leaves during the sunny part of the day...

LMK.

P.S. My soil thermometer tells me the ground is beginning to cool off (85°), even though our air temps are still scorching. My eggplants are still cranking out, but I can tell they're slowing down. I've got another harvest ready to pick today. This will be my fourth.

I'm giving them another 4-6 weeks in the raised bed, at which time my cole crops seedlings will be ready to take their place...
